NVIDIA GB206
NVIDIA's GB206 GPU uses the Blackwell 2.0 architecture at TSMC. GB206 supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (Feature Level 12_2). For GPU compute applications, OpenCL version 3.0 and CUDA 10.1 can be used. Additionally, the DirectX 12 Ultimate capability guarantees support for hardware-raytracing, variable-rate shading and more, in upcoming video games. It features 4608 shading units, 144 texture mapping units and 64 ROPs. Also included are 144 tensor cores which help improve the speed of machine learning applications. The GPU also contains 36 raytracing acceleration cores.
